Summer might be coming to an end soon, but that doesn’t mean you have to head inside just yet. Thanks to this inflatable corn maze from Amazon, it’s possible to extend your al fresco fun into the fall.
When most people think of corn mazes, they usually envision a terrifying labyrinth a la The Shining; however, this 16.5 x 16.5-foot setup offers plenty of mysterious intrigue—minus the nightmares. The twisting path provides a great backdrop for treasure hunts, relay races, or slightly-spooky strolls after sunset.
And for kiddos not in the mood to navigate a maze, the exterior’s removable dart board and faux soccer goalie covers offer alternative adventures. It also comes with footballs, golf gear, and velcro orbs to up the competition.
Once the kids are mazed out and just want to kick back, relax, and watch television, the maze doubles as a projection screen to play your favorite movie or latest streaming obsession.
We like that this pick comes with a handful of D-rings so you can use ropes, stakes, and sandbags to keep it sturdy. It also comes with a 950-watt commercial air blower, which makes it possible to inflate (or deflate) this windy web in mere minutes. Bonus points: This pick comes in three colors—yellow, green, and orange—so you can choose one that pairs nicely with the rest of your outdoor décor.
Currently available for $610 on Amazon, this multi-purpose maze isn’t exactly cheap, but put it this way: If you’re looking for some never-ending fun—that won’t take up permanent space in your backyard—it’s well worth the investment.
And if you’re throwing a party, why stop with one maze? While you’re shopping, you can easily pick up a few extra inflatables to transform your backyard into a fall-friendly festival. All treat, no tricks here!
Note: the product listing doesn’t list a recommended age, but some online reviewers suggest it could be suitable for kids aged 6 and up.
